of that name-a stream flowing from the M1e-
sissippi to the gulf. The Lafourche Is navi-
gable at all times save in extreme low water.
It's banks are lined with fine plantations aud
settlements, and the soil is Of the same rich
alluyial character as that of the Ieche or the
Mississippi. Thibodaux has population ot
not less than three thousand, and 1t Is one OF
the best kept towns in the State. 1t has ex-
cellept sidewalks drainage canals, etc, and
new and elegantly fitted up city hall. IL mas
fine stores, residences, hotels, churches,
schools. ETC., and notably the finest and iarg-
est Catholic Church outside OF New Orleans,
Father Menard has been its venerable anu
beloved pastor for the last forty years, and
